London police are asking for the public's help identifying a suspect wanted in connection with a violent mugging that took place last fall.

Police say a man was in the area of Thompson Rd. and Gladstone Ave. when he was attacked by five or six people just before 8pm on November 3 of last year. The man was pushed to the ground and assaulted by one of the suspects, who police alleged then took off with the man's cell phone.

The suspect is described as male, possibly indigenous, approximately 20 years old, 6’ tall, and 200 lbs. He has a distinctive tattoo on his neck of a chain with a cross.
